If Judge Wilson's warning, by his
disclosure Of the yickery which en-
ables the St. Paul and Chicago Rail-
way Company-so called-to escape
many years of just taxation will spur
the people on to careful scruti ny OF
other straw concerns and costly public
frauds, it will have done much good.
A measure Of the last legislature.
ostensibly for the relief of settlers,
becomes in the end, through what
means we are not prepared to say. an
instrument for diverting from the
public treasury many thousands of
dollars of taxes. And that the So
called railway company was thor
oughly convinced that some day it's
fraudulent character must be discov-

contracts with purchasers Of its lands
to the effect that it would not be liza.

average purchaser attached no impor

proviso.- and 1t may be that some
p,lilanthropic gentleman originated
this measure for the relief Of confid-
ing settlers. or, 1t may be that the
officials Of this trackless and aneqnip-
ped railway company saw good OPP
portunity to sneak out Of their just
obligations to the state. We will not
do them the injustice to say 80. until
we shall have heard their side Of the
story. At any rate, the good public
